The city of New Orleans, a major sea and river port on the Mississippi River and Gulf of Mexico, has played an impor- tant rolein America's history since it's earliest days. The battle of New Orleans, in the War of 1812, witnessed the de- feat of a large British- amphibi- ous expedition by the delaying tactics of a small fleet of gun- boats and two sloops under the command of Commodore Dan- iel T. Patterson. This delaying action enabled the forces of Andrew Jackson to select a desirable downriver defense and await the arrival of needed reinforcements. The New Or- leans victory preserved U.S. national honor, self respect and prestige at home and abroad. New Orleans again played a major role in American Mili- tary history during the Civil War. When Farragut's fleet passed the forts guarding New Orleans on April 24, 1862, to capture New Orleans, the fate of the Confederacy was sealed, assuring that the United States would not be divided.
